Fact is there is nothing we can do. Because for everyone of us there are at least 100 people who just don't care. They will continue to download illegally, they will continue to listen to the crap that the corporate media shoves down their throat and Hanna Montana (or whatever "pop diva" takes her place) will continue to sell out.

I know that people think that somehow this will turn around but it won't. This is the music industry and unfortunately there is no way any of us can compete with big names like Microsoft, Sony or anything like that when we're doing this on our own.

So long as American Idol is still the most popular show on TV people won't none of this will change. The best we can do is keep pushing along and hope that the nearly infinite number of "indie" labels will make a dent in the crap storm that is the music industry.
